re: #6 Destro

yes, I watch boxing matches and they do not serve as a lesson for fighting a war.

You sound like you think going to war like the way you are advocating is some sort of cheap adventure? Until we can come up with robot planes that can carry these huge bombs while evading SAMs that ain’t the case.

It’s called a “strike package”, Destro. The B-2s carrying the MOP bombs are only part of it. Other aircraft would be used to destroy Iranian radars and air defense sites. Still others would stand by to intercept any Iranian fighters that got off the ground (though its doubtful if such fighters could even detect a B-2, its best to be sure). All in all, we might lose an aircraft or two, but the bombers would get through, don’t doubt that for a minute.
